(The weight increases and decreases in 5-pound or 2 kg increments) To increase the accuracy of the calorie count that appears on the display, select a weight that is closest to your actual weight. Press ENTER.

7.The AGE prompt appears if the Precor Heart Rate Option receiver is installed in the electronic console display. If you wish to purchase this valuable option package, contact the dealer nearest you by calling, 1-800-4-PRECOR.

8.At the “SELECT COURSE” prompt, choose your workout mode:

M9.21i — Manual (MAN’L), Interval (INTV), Weight Loss (WT.LS.), Heart Rate Course (HRC) or Random

M9.21si — all the programs mentioned above plus the preprogrammed courses shown on the display label.

Press the or key until you see the desired mode or course number appear on the display, then press ENTER.

9.Depending on the program you select, you may be prompted to answer more questions or press the SPEED key to begin your workout. Hold onto the handrail with one hand while you press SPEED with the other hand. Step onto the running belt while the speed is at or below 1 mph (1.6 kph). Once you are comfortable with the walking or running speed, you can remove your hands from the handrail.

To pause during your workout session before finishing the selected program, press the STOP key. The displays on the console freeze. See Pausing Your Workout or Ending Your Workout for more information.

Note: Optional hand weights, called Precor Smart Weights, are available from your local dealer. Precor Smart Weights provide 1- or 2-pound hand weights with the added conve- nience of remote control. The remote control lets you change your speed or incline and stop the running belt. Precor Smart Weights give you control of your treadmill’s electronic console functions while you enjoy the added benefit of an upper body workout. For more information call your local dealer. To locate the dealer nearest you call, 1-800-4-PRECOR.

10.When you are finished exercising, hold onto the handrail and press STOP. (You can also press SPEEDuntil the running belt stops.) You can then review your workout results as the display scans through DISTANCE, TIME, and CALORIES. (HEART RATE appears if you are wearing the Precor chest strap.)

Note: Always allow yourself a cool-down period of a few minutes before bringing the running belt to a complete stop. Cooling down after your workout helps reduce muscle stiffness and soreness by transporting excess lactic acid out of the working muscles. It also helps your heart rate return to its normal (non-exercising) state. You can access the manual mode (MAN’L) from any program by tapping STOP twice in quick succession. Manual mode enables you to change the speed and incline and adapt a cool-down period into your workout.

11.If desired, after reviewing the displays, reset them to zero by pressing HOLD TO RESET for several seconds.

12.Detach the safety clip from your clothing and remove the magnetic safety key from the electronic console. Turn OFF the treadmill.

13.To prevent unauthorized use, store the safety key in a safe place.
